Seems as if there's an assistant job to head Wildcat coach Tubby Smith in Bluegrass land open at this time... Seems as if there's a Mr. Pierre from Baton Rouge who currently holds a similar position in Baton Rouge being courted HEAVILY for the position at this time... Seems as if Brady has reassigned his administrative assistant, letting go his other assistant, and bringing back former assistant coach Bobby Tyndall (Who was the game film guru during the Sweet 16 run who left the season after)... I wonder...Will Pierre's possible departure cool Tasmin's interest in the Tigers? Would Pierre's possible hiring by UK be anything more than a thinly veiled ploy to land him in Derby territory? Would anyone fathom that Brady could allow Pierre to slip away like a fart in the wind, with his own personal salvation in the form of a basketball phenom in tow? Things will be interesting the next few days and weeks, ladies and gents...Very interesting...
As much as I hate to say it, he would be foolish not to take the gig and I can assure you that Tasmin is history as well if that happens. If Big Baby doesn't make his grades and this happens, this ship will go down faster than the Edmund Fitzgerald for John Brady. Surely if these two things happen in the near future, Brady must be fired this year or this program will be in worse shape than it was when Brady took over. I say if Glen Davis doesn't make his grades, fire Brady, hire Butch as the interim coach and see what he can do next year. I really don't know anything about Butch to even know if he is qualified for something like that though.
That sounds like a Dale Brown trick to me. Do you think a man with Tubby's reputation would stoop so low. I wonder if Butch would consider what will happen once Tasmin leaves college. Would Tubby dump him in order to get the next great prospect. Wonder if Kentucky, like Duke, would hire Tasmin's Mom or give her a race horse like they were rumored to have done when they got Rick Robey?
martin, please don't bother responding to me until you address the Maurice Clarett issue, which you decided to parade around on until someone showed you the definition of hypocrisy and your relation to it made you shift your position in that little ivory-or should I say glass?-throne of yours? If you haven't heard the "rumors" then you haven't heard Collis Temple (The oldest-ie CT3 and Garrett's dad) on the radio...Because the same place you heard him was the same place you heard the "rumor"...
you may soon learn that i dont take your bait, until then i will watch you make a fool of yourself trying. you put "rumors" in quotes as if they are not really rumors, but i didnt decide it was a rumor, you did, in another thread: i was just reminding you of the board's stance on rumors, to help you play by the rules. in fact the least helpful rumors to spread are the ones that are not good for the program, like the leaving of a popular assistant coach.
I agree, if you can't site a source such as "Mr Temple was on the radio today and said" then you shouldn't post it. I don't usually get into any of the battles you guys wage but I have to agree with Martin on this one. If there is an opening cite the source and if there is evidence that Pierre is being pursued then site the source, otherwise it should be left unsaid.
